Weve got a whole lot of answers, and a whole lot of new questions to unpack tonight.

Cut to 2008, where everybody is living their best lives and embracing their best accessories!
Max and his surgically attached backwards baseball cap!
Alexs eyeliner and nose ring and choker and overall My Chemical Romance vibe!
On that note, look, lets just talk about Malex.
Why are you being so nice to me?
Michael asks, casually breaking our collective hearts; he has no experience of human kindness without an agenda.

You know Tess likes you.
